Check the maintenance guide in the owner's manual. How many miles you have on the car is a consideration.

You need nothing. At 3k miles, get an oil change.

If it needed antifreeze at 1110 miles it's got a severe problem. Just drive it and enjoy and get the oil changed at 3000 miles as per earlier post.

I wouldn't even check the antifreeze. Nothing to do before you change the oil for the first time. Everything should be ok.

Yes, the dealer will probably top off any fluids that are low when you take it in for an oil change.

My dealer will most of the time do a multipoint inspection when i get my oil changed. I havent changed the oil yet in my new G as it is just at 350 miles.
But they would check all my other G's and once i picked them up they would go through a few page rundown of what did/did not need attention.

I always get my first oil change w/ a brand new car at 1,000 miles, just to clean out any break-in residue and get it started early w/ synthetic oil.
